During January 2025, Michel Millette developed foundational hardware design assets for the Rover Ethernet Switch and Rover Servo Controller within the robotique-udes/PCB repository. Using CAD and PCB design skills, Michel created detailed STEP models and accompanying metadata to support early-stage hardware integration and future production planning. The work focused on generating STEP-based design files that facilitate downstream mechanical integration and assembly, while also improving repository hygiene and commit traceability through disciplined version control practices. Although no bugs were addressed during this period, the contribution established essential groundwork for the rover system’s physical integration, accelerating prototyping and enabling more efficient hardware workflows.
